How to print from C# - Please help

[Anand Ganesh]

Hi All,

How to print from C# to a plotter or printer?

How to set the page sizes?

How to scale the images that is being printed?

How this printing mechanism works?

Any suggestions please?

Thanks for your time.

Regards

That's too many broad questions for me to be able to help you out.
For two good articles on printing, I suggest:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnwinforms/html/printwinforms.asp
and
http://www.fawcette.com/vsm/2002_11/magazine/features/eaton/default.asp

The first link above has a nice simple hello world exercise that
requires less than 10 lines of code.

If you really want to know the internals, I suggest the book:
Programming Microsoft Windows with C# by Charles Petzold
